Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.
I hate pain medicine and will not use them, so I use the Clove oil mixed with V-6 oil for pain whenever I am hurting (knee, neck, back, wrist, etc.)
I have found that using this combination together gives me less stress and will not upset my stomach or body.
It is supportive of a healthy immune system and supports overall wellness.
